Eric Reighard will speak at Scrum Day Madison 2026

Scrum Day Madison is pleased to welcome Eric Reighard as a featured speaker at this year’s event on October 15, 2026, at the Madison Marriott West.

Eric brings a powerful and timely message in his session, “Soft Skills Are Your Superpower.” As AI continues to automate many routine aspects of Scrum, Eric challenges attendees to focus on the uniquely human capabilities that truly drive impact—coaching, empathy, facilitation, and the ability to navigate complex team and organizational dynamics.

Eric is an Agile Coach and Scrum Master at Sheetz, with a background spanning Agile transformation, instructional design, and organizational learning. His experience coaching cross-functional teams and guiding organizations through change gives him a practical, people-first perspective on what it takes to succeed in an AI-enabled workplace.

In his session, Eric will explore how Scrum Masters can leverage AI to handle repetitive tasks while doubling down on the skills that AI cannot replace—building trust, fostering collaboration, and helping teams unlock their full potential.

Join us at Scrum Day Madison 2026 to hear Eric and other inspiring speakers share insights on how to thrive at the intersection of agility, leadership, and emerging technology.
